I’ve had this lying around for a while but never used it because it didn’t turn out as well as I’d hoped it would. But here it is anyway: a triptych of the Los Angeles skyline taken during sunset from Angeles Crest Highway on the way home from Mt. Wilson. Better weather (for clarity) and a better time of year (for the direction of the sunset) would have helped, but sometimes you have to take what you can get.

FACT:

Mother Jones was founded as a nonprofit in 1976 because we knew corporations and the wealthy wouldn't fund the type of hard-hitting journalism we set out to do.

Today, reader support makes up about two-thirds of our budget, allows us to dig deep on stories that matter, and lets us keep our reporting free for everyone. If you value what you get from Mother Jones, please join us with a tax-deductible donation today so we can keep on doing the type of journalism 2019 demands.
